8 Facts About Brooke

Bikini Brooke

A few weeks ago on DeviantArt, Lora Innes tagged me with an OC Meme that asked for 8 facts about Brooke. I posted it there, but I thought there’s a lot of readers here that would find these facts about Brooke interesting.

8 Facts About Brooke

1. Brooke is originally from Sydney, Australia and was there until she was 16 years old.

2. Brooke’s Dad remarried and moved Brooke and her new family to the States. Brooke has a new step-mother and two step-sisters. Brooke is not close to any of them.

3. Brooke originally tried out for an independent wrestling promotion in California as a model and was offered a spot in their training academy under the wrestling guidance of Hazzard and Ultravixen.

4. Brooke’s training lasted 15 months before she ‘convinced’ Hazzard that she was ready for the big leagues of Rival Angels.

5. Brooke watches her figure and hates sweets. Except for chocolate. And fruit pies. And the occasional splurge of marshmallow pie for a job well done.

6. Brooke’s newer ‘Aphrodite’ outfit was based on Sabrina’s older wrestling outfit.

7. Brooke is allergic to nuts and dander. She’s never had a pet or chocolate almonds.

8. Brooke was a C cup before getting breast implants. She saved up half of the money on her own and borrowed the rest from her Dad.

Krystin! The Definition of TechnicianOn DeviantArt, there is a wrestling tournament that I entered Krystin into. She’s getting clobbererd currently, and could use your vote. Even if Krystin isn’t your favorite angel, she’s still better than her opponent, right?

Do it.

Spiked Stock

To really do good line work you need good reference.  A point that my teacher and mentor likes to point out:

 

     ”Too often I see someone trying to use reference for a body part thinking that’s all they need for the entire pose. Most everyone but the masters of this world DOES NOT have the experience nor the understanding of physics, anatomy, form, contour, lighting, weight, density, foreshortening, perspective and all the other intrinsic necessities for a good drawing without reference. Face it, it’s just not cataloged in the brain in a readily accessible manner. You have to research it. You will not be able to produce something passable by memory. Only masters can, and you know what they always do? That’s right! They use reference! They set up their own models and photos, set up their own lighting, research reams and reams of photographs and are constantly referencing all sorts of media to ensure they can transfer what is in their head to what is on the canvas. Now if every single great artist in the world utilizes reference, don’t you think it might be a good idea for your work?”

 

So I went out and looked for some good stock and I found Hannah’s DeviantArt account. Now, you may have noticed that Hannah (Spiked-stock) has been posting here in the comments as well as drawing dynamite looking pictures of Ultragirl (seen in the current Voting Incentive).  Anyways, I thought I would share with you how Hannah’s stock photos have been helping me out.

This one is a favorite of mine, and is used in tower banners around the web.
 

 

I haven’t shown this one off yet, but it’ll be the next voting incentive.  Of course, it’ll be colored up.

 

Still in the rough stages of this one, but its a dynamic shot.  Way cool.

 

I think this one will turn out well, a picture I’m doing of Krystin the ‘Definition of Technician.’

So a big thanks to Hannah for these crazy cool stock photos.  I wouldn’t have done them as well without you.  So take a gander at some of her awesome pictures, you’ll be glad you did.
